With regard to what happens as a result of democratic (i.e., mob) rule, I am partial to understanding that it has something to do with the individual beliefs of the members of the mob. I do find value in credible polling in my own attempts to understand those beliefs.
I don't look for the administration's 'doings' to align with my views on righteousness or morality, but they don't need to do that in order to become, for lack of a better word, the reality of our environment. Can we agree on this situation we find ourselves in.
These changes in our enviorment seems to me to be a battle between a resistant, status quo ruling class and an emerging a new billionaire class who demands reconsideration of the orthodoxy. The loss of credibility of the legacy media seems to be the prerequisite, not the consequence, of this change. The alternate media seems to give to the masses a cognitive space to accept the change and participate accordingly.
What is accordingly?
